"We have been frequent travellers on the Fuller-operated ferries from Opua to Russell, for more than two years," writes Llewellyn L. White. "Because we live in Moerewa in the Bay of Islands we use the Vehicular Ferry Resident Concession card. This card costs $61 for10 trips, making a return journey $12.20. The card is now to be restricted to four post codes - none of which are ours. Fullers offered us a 10 per cent discount card which will take our round trip costs to $22.50. Although pensioners, we work hard in the Bay of Islands community, being volunteer teachers, CYF caregivers and St John volunteers ... What's Fullers up to? "
What it's like to be a woman
1. Ladies, never show panty lines!!!!!! It breaks the illusion that your pants are actually your skin!!!!!
2. Dolls teach girls very unrealistic body standards. A Russian doesn't have to have many tiny Russians inside her to be beautiful.
5. Recipe for liberation as a woman: eat five man buns with heads still attached, claim new power.
6. The moral of Beauty and the Beast is that looks don't matter, as long as you're a man.

The humble eggplant is apparently suggestive of a penis and a taco of a vagina and these are ways of being suggestive about sex, not dinner. (
A man who was forced to spend nearly a month in jail is suing the cops who mistook his homemade soap for cocaine. Alexander Bernstein, 32, of New York says the two "brick-sized" packages of soap were a gift for his sister. The 2.2kg package was wrapped in clear plastic, red tape and stuffed in his boot. A field test showed that the substance was cocaine, but lab testing concluded it was soap. (Source: The Morning Call)
